Craw Valley It is not so very often we get a chance to advertise for ourselves. We are generally occupied I in doing it tor some one else, hut now und then we get an opportunit y to say something about our own business. Basically our business is retelling the news about people and digging out, listening to. putting together the news about things - things that affect Sherman County and its people. If there is a new highway possible we want to know of it, if farmers are building an elevator it is grist for our mill; if someone discovers or invents a better way to kill weeds, till soil or sell wheat we are interested; new and better ways to educate kids excite our attention. Anything that is newsworthy in our dish. While Ibis is a very pleasant occupation and one we have done mi long we have gotten used to its peculiarities and disadvantages il is not a profitable occupation in itself. We have to sell advertising Sometimes we can sell advertising to the very same people who lead the paper which is mee. sometimes we sell advertising to people who want the people who lead the paper to notice their ads. That is nice too. The point is that if we d o n ’t sell advertising to some one wo »»mid not spend our time thinking about the county aud its people. Sherman County merchants have good goods to sell. They know that s the only kind that are acceptable over the long pull. They seldom have sales or cut prices and because they are not dramatic they are sometimes overlooked and the steadiness of their service not considered. This is, we think, an error - an error on the part of the local merchants to be so inconspicuous and an error on the part ot the consumers to overlook them on account of their modesty If would surely he n very »Irearv county without local mer- <’l»auts a„d a very expensive county as well. The use of gasoline would he greatly increased if we had to drive far away from home to find a ham, a til»*, a 2x4 or a hottie of ink. We think it would be advisable for merchants to call attention to themselves so they will not be forgotten and overlooked The best and easiest way is by advertising in the SHERMAN COUNTY JOURNAL D>^ you ever notice that most firms that go bankrupt are Httle firms that were seldom heard of. Of the 3200 that went broke in Oregon only a few were big, well known ones. There’s an antidote for it. The way for a firm to be well known is to advertise
